Seven Seas Entertainment Licenses 'Hotel Inhumans' Manga for English Release, Anime's Second Season Confirmed

Seven Seas Entertainment, a prominent publisher in Japanese and international pop culture, has announced its acquisition of Ao Tajima's acclaimed manga series, Hotel Inhumans. The English print release is scheduled for August 2026. This licensing is a significant development for the series, which has already gained a substantial following through its anime adaptation.

Hotel Inhumans introduces readers to a hidden world where a luxurious hotel serves as an exclusive sanctuary for the world's most dangerous professional assassins. Distinct from a typical hotel, the staff are highly trained to meet the extraordinary demands of their elite clientele. Their services range from discreetly providing specialized weaponry to meticulously handling body disposals, all while maintaining a strict code of secrecy and professionalism. This unique concept, combining high-stakes action with intricate character-driven drama, has captivated audiences since its serialization on Shogakukan’s Sunday Webry platform from June 2021 to August 2025, culminating in 12 volumes.

The series' popularity further increased with a 13-episode anime television series, produced by Studio Bridge, which premiered in 2025. A second season of the anime adaptation was officially announced in September 2025, highlighting the franchise's growing global appeal. Seven Seas Entertainment's decision to offer Hotel Inhumans to English-speaking audiences in both print and digital single-volume editions directly addresses the strong demand from an international fanbase for official localizations of popular manga and anime properties.

In addition to Hotel Inhumans, Seven Seas has expanded its diverse catalog with other notable licenses. These include Minoru Toyoda's manga Draw This, Then Die! and an audiobook adaptation of Yuyuko Takemiya's supernatural romance novel, Breathless Time Traveler. Since its establishment in 2004, Seven Seas Entertainment has built a reputation for curating and delivering culturally significant and genre-diverse content. These new additions further strengthen its position as a key publisher in the global entertainment landscape, promising to continue providing a rich selection of Japanese manga, light novels, danmei, and global webtoons to an expanding readership.
